D Rose Injury will make it Tough for the Bulls

2016/7/27 15:35:26

You probably known by now that Derrick Rose is out for the remainder of the season after undergoing meniscus surgery. Fans are fearing the worst since he has two significant knee surgeries in 19 months, they are worried if he can ever regain his old self.

Derrick Rose left Portland's Moda Center on crutches and the MRI revealed it was a torn meniscus.

The Bulls without Derrick Rose can win games but they do not have enough talent without Rose to win a championship. However, they don't have a great roster last season but still managed 45 wins and took the eventual NBA Champions Miami Heat to game 5 in the Conference Semifinals. They have enough talent to make the playoffs this year especially now that the Eastern Conference is struggling.

Bulls life without Rose have been very dark, the Los Angeles Clippers routed them at the Staples Center 121-82. Then in their 2nd game without Rose, the struggling Utah Jazz beat the Bulls, 89-83 in overtime.

For now the point guard duty will be delegated to Kirk Hinrich. He was the starting point guard for the Bulls before Derrick Rose came so he can easily play this part. He's not D Rose but he can spread the floor and attack the basket if needed. Joakim Noah, Carlos Boozer, and Luol Deng should carry this team for now.

What to expect from Derrick Rose in his return?

I would expect Rose to work hard and pick up where he left off. Meniscus tear is a relatively common occurrence in the NBA, and medial meniscus is a lighter injury than the lateral. However, he's been gone for a long time he will need to shake off a lot of rust.

Derrick Rose is an explosive player he rely too much on his athleticism. Surgeries on both his knees for different types of injuries will not bode well for him. He must develop his game. He need to have a first class jump shot to lessen his need to attack the basket.

Well, Rose injury could have been a lot worse. This is what the Chicago Bulls and Derrick Rose should be thankful for despite another blow to their title contention. Being diagnosed with a torn medial meniscus in his right knee is somewhat lighter he will be out indefinitely after undergoing surgery, but it will heal.

Derrick Rose was sidelined and spent the 2012-13 season recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. He was still showing considerable rust this season before an awkward backdoor cut took him out of the Bulls' Friday loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.

They feared a second torn ACL, that would have been disastrous and possibly ends his career. A torn meniscus is a significant setback for the Bulls this season, but all things considered, the long-term implications are not as bad as they could have been.
